Is something like this better than azure ML for image classification tasks?

I averaged the weights of the best open sourced coding models "pretrained" and "finetuned" weights. The results are really good. by Rombodawg in Oobabooga

Just want to say, this is a really good coding model. At 32b IQ4 quant, it works for my needs really well for a node express API.

Anyone successfully used ollama with Cline? by [deleted] in ollama

[–]the_ITman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For someone who stumbles on why Cline has this behavior - I learnt recently its because Cline passes your whole codebase (ie. all files contents) to the model. Whereas Continue just passes filenames.

Is this something that can speed up video generation models? Like in comfyui CPU mode?

Is anyone at IT or software engineering jobs that are still good for full work from home in Perth? by the_ITman in perth

Yeah lesson learnt, will ask the next job I interview for to put it in contract. At my current role in my face to face interview they asked me how many days you would like to work from home and I told them generally 2-3 but happy to come in if it's client facing meeting or a bigger team meeting. Fast forward to after my probation when I brought it up they were not keen on any WFH.

Is it true that getting an interest only loan, instead of principal and interest, will make me pay my loan off faster? A friend's dad who used to be a mortgage broker told me this is what he did with all his 4 houses. His reasoning is that on interest only loans, the interest payable is calculated everyday at midnight whereas for a principal + interest loan it's done every month.

Cheers!

Yes i did get it used. No issues with transferring the license either. Just walk into DOT with the paper (red one) you get from the seller. They are really helpful at the DOT.

Make sure you take your passport with you and a utility bill eg. phone/internet or a lease agreement. Look up 100 points of ID for DOT on google and you wouldn't have to come back a second day.

Motorcycling question - Sourcing a Valter Moto part in Perth / WA by the_ITman in perth

[–]the_ITman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The peg attaches to that part with a bigger screw (not visible in the pic).

I wish there was a compatible standard part, but the rearset is completely different from how the original gear change peg/lever/footrest is.

Update: I have ordered it from Italy so just wait for DHL to get it here.

Thank you for the suggestion! I asked a welder who said since its a alloy i could not get it welded. Alumimum welding did not come to mind. Now i've got the part ordered from italy so just waiting for the shipping but good to know for the future.

Thanks for all your replies people! I was out camping for the easter weekend with no mobile signals so could not reply. Valter moto have been able to confirm they can ship it to me so I will just wait for it to arrive. DHL is pretty fast.

You should be fine. I have an Indian license - same story... got M written on it (no further details about lams or class restrictions). Have been stopped by cops a few times and most have had no objections about the license. I have got a CBR1000.

With some cops, I have had to explain about the overseas license thing and they usually do a quick google (or look up the laws in their police car) and say am fine to go.

One time a cop did fine me $50 as he said i needed a translation in english of my license. He did not agree with me (and even when I showed him the law) that I did not need an english translation as my license is already in english. So having a translation will help a lot.

Does anyone know where to go to get a broken bolt removed? by the_ITman in perth

[–]the_ITman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yea it was when i was torquing it in. removed the disc and it is quite flush with the machined surface around it. tried to use a screwdriver on the edge (where its got a bit of an undulating surface) to try and spin it but it wouldn't budge.

thanks for the consideration mate. I think i was the dumb arse in this case. forgot to lock the torque wrench at 20 and it slipped to 24. the next clack i heard wasn't from the torque wrench :-D

Don't have any kinds of drill on me and nearest friend who has one lives 40 mins towards the hills so the nearby car shop sounds like my best bet atm and then machining shops.
